Senator Street Historic District
Senator Street Historic District, Renaissance Revival residential district in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, United States
The Senator Street Historic District contains 40 buildings featuring three-story brownstone residences with high stoops and carved stone decorations along the street.
The district, constructed between 1906 and 1912, honors Henry Cruse Murphy, who served as Brooklyn Mayor and transformed Yellow Hook into Bay Ridge.
Each residence displays carved lion heads at the top of stoop railings, representing the architectural preferences of early 20th-century Brooklyn society.
The district spans 2.5 acres between Third and Fourth Avenues, offering visitors a collection of preserved residential buildings from the early 1900s.
Architect Fred W. Eisenla designed 38 of the 40 buildings in the district, creating a unified architectural ensemble with foliated details and heraldic emblems.
